KOTA KINABALU: Fifty sites in Sabah have been identified for the installation of the Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) facilities this year, while another 300 sites have been earmarked next year in a bid to improve internet connectivity in the state.

Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor, when launching the seven VSAT ConnectMenow installations at Kudat on Thursday (Aug 12), said this was an initiative under the state government's Hala Tuju Sabah Maju Jaya (SMJ) to ensure that folks, particularly those in rural areas, will get Internet connection.
